Questions
1. (6 points) We are given that the impulse response of a continuous-time LTI system is of the form
as shown below, where A and T are unknown.

Figure 1: Impulse response (problem-1).

• When the system is subjected to the input x1 (t) as shown in Fig. 2, the output y1 (t) is zero
at t = 5.

3. (8 points) Sampling and reconstruction allow us to process continuous time signals using digital
electronics as shown in the following figure. The “impulse sampler” and “impulse reconstruction”

use sampling interval T = π/100. The function hd [n] represents the unit-impulse response of an
ideal discrete time low-pass filter with gain of 1 for frequencies in the range − π2 < Ω < π2 . The
“ideal LPF” passes frequencies in the range −100 < ω < 100. It also has a gain of T throughout
its pass band. Assume that the Fourier transform of the input xc (t) is Xc (jω) shown below:

answer with proper justification.
